Today’s game is Halo. It’s been a hot second since I played this I feel like. Some stuff happened and it was hard to get everyone together. I was finally able to tonight though.
I tried something a little different and had my friends pick the “main” screenshot. They picked the one above because it looks like some “looney toons shenanigans” and “the one slipped on a banana”.
I can kind of see it, I didn’t really think about it in the moment when I took it though. Honestly I kind of like it. I feel like the generic action shots really don’t encapsulate what this game has come to mean to me in the time I’ve spent with it. It feels like a little piece that ultimately doesn’t showcase how I feel about it.
Speaking of how I feel: Boarding Action. All my friends hate this map. I love it. I have fond memories of playing it in middle school in Custom Edition. We’d get a big LAN party going in Wood Shop class and just dick around (instead of, yknow, cutting wood or something). Maybe it’s nostalgia but I love this map. It’s great for that. I could honestly sit there and just watch it for a while and enjoy the time. CE really has that special aesthetic.
And finally, since I’m in a rush for time, and in direct contradiction with my earlier statement about action shots, I captured this one I really liked. We were playing infection and I somehow managed to keep up with 9 Melees in a row and not die. I got this cool shoot of me meeting my friend. I may not like action shots. But this gets a pass as a cool memorial.
my buddy used to be one of the top players in halo. i remember one game we played he had 45 kills. me and another friend legitimately couldnt combine for 5 so we lost
Top players are both impressive and a little frustrating lol. No grudges against them but damn am i left both awestruck and disappointed when i bump into them in social games
Tell me the kids still t-bag each other.
Can’t speak for the kids but it is something i uphold at the very least
As a Halo Oldhead, I really hate to say this but the kids aren’t playing Halo. Its just us Oldheads, because 343 (now wearing mustache glasses as Halo studios) has done such a terrific job ruining the series. I didn’t know it was possible to bury a series that controlled the world so badly.
But then Disney did the exact same thing with Star Wars, and other IP owners are following suit. Crazy times.
Bumping until I find a game Ive played.
I’ve been meaning to put together a list of everything i’ve done so people can see, everytime i think of it though i forget to
Yesss that would be interesting, that and the ultimate water ranking :P
I just like your attitude of posting for the sake of it. I admire it.
We are the Fediverse.
